@koalie mince, pile au moment où je découvre #FixTheNews… bon bah on va passer par le RSS, je suppose.
the fuck... I just canceled my paid subscription to #FixTheNews because they decided now of all times was the time to move to Substack. Yeah, that Substack.
Substack’s “Nazi problem” won’t go away after push notification apology

Substack may be legitimizing neo-Nazis as "thought leaders," researcher warns.

Ars Technica

Longtime subscriber, and promoter of the excellent #FixTheNews newsletter, I wrote to the editor that I will unsubscribe (and I did), following the decision to move from Ghost to Substack.

I do not wish to support Substack, which, as a platform, deliberately chooses to prioritize profit over moderation and safety.
Cf. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Substack#Criticism

Fix The News is back with stories of progress! From our podcast’s new season launching next week to exciting moves like our transition to Substack, there’s a lot happening.
